Gatekeeper damage reflect

[Juicy Pork Chop]

Hello

The little talismans you need to destroy to break the gatekeeper seem to randomly damage me when I shoot them and I can't see why they do/don't and what changes. Does anyone know? Thanks

Don't they need to match the color he is at that moment so you can destroy them?

whenever the gatekeeper emits a colour, you need to shoot the same coloured talisman at the same time...if you attack a talisman and the gatekeeper is not emitting the same colour, you'll take damage. Good luck friend
